KTNN (660 AM) is a Navajo language radio station in Window Rock, Arizona, the seat of the government of the Navajo Nation. It broadcasts Navajo tribal music and audio from Navajo ceremonial ( powwow) dances and Native American music, as well as country music and bluegrass in English. It also broadcasts high school basketball games from the local high schools on the Navajo Reservation. [4][ unreliable source?] Most of its announcers are bilingual and broadcast in Navajo and English. [5]
At the time the station came on the air in 1986, it claimed to be the last station allowed to go on the air with a full 50,000 watts on another station's clear channel frequency; however, other stations have been allowed since. [6]
At night the station uses a directional antenna to protect, as required by Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules, the signal of WFAN at New York City, since WFAN is a Class A (formerly Class I-A) station broadcasting on 660 kHz and KTNN is Class B (formerly Class II-A). [6] Its programming is also heard on KTNN-FM (101.5) in Tohatchi, New Mexico.
